我们分析了尼尔森家庭消费者小组，利用家庭内部差异来估计烟草政策对烟草相关购买的影响。我们还将购买的香烟与NHANES的香烟成分相匹配。更高的烟草税减少了香烟购买并增加了戒烟产品的购买，而对禁烟效果的估计则不太精确。无烟烟草税减少了无烟烟草的使用，但也导致了无烟烟草产品之间的替代。我们发现有证据表明，香烟税促使人们购买焦油、尼古丁和一氧化碳含量较高的香烟，但这种补偿行为被购买量的减少所抵消。
We analyze the Nielsen Household Consumer Panel to estimate the effects of tobacco policies on tobacco-related purchases using within-household variation. We also match purchases to cigarette contents from NHANES. Higher cigarette taxes reduce cigarette purchases and increase smoking cessation product purchases, while estimates of smoking ban effects are less precisely estimated. Smokeless tobacco (SLT) taxes lead to reductions in SLT use but also lead to substitution among SLT products. We find evidence that cigarette taxes induce purchases of cigarettes with higher tar, nicotine, and carbon monoxide contents, but this compensatory behavior is overwhelmed by the reduction in cigarettes purchased.
